[Locked] Regular Warzone 6-man Limit????? NOPE. NO THANKS.
You're about to Kill the most active Playlist in Halo 5. Please dont implement this, you already did it to WZ assault (which was a terrible idea). If people want to play solo Warzone, then create a Solo WZ playlist or a smaller one. Dont screw up a good thing here.
EDIT: THERE has been some great point posted in the HUGE thread. Here are some below that you can skip to to read.
It's not permanent I think. That's just to test stuff out to see what they will do.
Even so, test it as another playlist.
You're right, it's just a test to see that there wouldn't be so much Farming.
True, but still. I remember everyone was talking about the team reduction of WZA but last time I played it was brought back to regular size.
I'd prefer to see them match teams and skill, but I think this is a good move and worth a shot.
Solo players never had a chance when it was 12 max.
No playlist should allow a full team.

Ok, 6 man teams is a horrible idea. I quick core every match, yeah the other team loses but they lose quickly. Guess what I'm going to do now though? Me and 5 other people are going to absolutely Savage every player on that map for 30 minutes straight. You want the games to be longer? That's cool. But they way 343 is doing it means people are going to get absolutely slayed for half an hour.
Get ready for 6 people to farm you for 30 minutes instead of coring you. have fun getting slayed.
Oh look, I might actually play Warzone for the first time in months! Yay!
Solo Player should petition for a Solo Queue Playlist then. That would be a better solution.
Farming and one side and matches our real problem for a lot of players in warzone and I'm glad they're looking into ways to have better quality matches.
Kids complain about being farmed by teams of 12, so we quick core to get fast xp to level up (which 343 made so difficult to do) and now they complain about us ending it quickly and sparing their KD ratio. Just move on from that game and play the next one not against a team, or here's a good idea, GET A TEAM TO PLAY WITH. I'm so tired of this. If this trial is like assaults and stays permanent I'm done playing this game and a lot of my friends are too. You think farming was an issue? Most teams of 12 quick cored but now, you're sticking 6 strong players in a lobby with 6 randoms. The farming is going to grow, kids are going to be mad, and you'll regret it. SMH 343 you're the ones killing the community not the farming. I can't even believe that this is the solution you came up with. Matching full teams 12 on 12 was my favorite part of this game and now that's gone.
pretty much this. they killed wza by changing it to 6 man fireteam limit so much so that sometimes you cant even find matches. same thing will happen to regular warzone. if you want to cater to horrible players then make a solo que option for warzone. this is so dumb, you make a gametype for 12 players but then change the limit to 6 man fireteams? well make arena 2 man fireteam limit and btb 4 man fireteam limit and see how dumb that is.
Not everyone has the privilege of playing with a TEAM.
and even if you do they don't always want to play the modes you do.
So than your forced to play modes you don't like or play solo till they want to play your modes.
Heres an idea, Instead of nuking the only playlist that rewards large team work, why dont you guys create a playlist for Spartan Companies? Give your Spartan Companies meaning, give them something to play for. Because honestly those are the people that will keep this game alive.
I think The teams are more up set on losing fast easy xp/rp. Wrecking solos. 6 man teams will make it harder to do this. I think this will help war zone more than hurt. The masses are solos.
I don't know how I feel about this... I'm usually on the receiving end of a farmed match or quick core, so I can understand why they want to try and prevent blowout matches but limiting fireteam size on WZ seems like a mistake. It's one of the few playlists you can get a bunch of your Spartan Co. mates into together... I think they should have just added a 'Mercy Rule', like Destiny did, and if the match is too one-sided end the game early. That or maximize the matchmaking settings so you're more likely to get evenly skilled teams or be matched with people with fireteams closer in size to one another.
